Is there any mascara, liner and brow makeup that is really water proof?

We are going to the Caribbean in a few weeks and plan to spend lots of time in the pool. I need something that won't wash off and will last

mary kay has a mascara that does not come off you can swim and everything just don't rub your eyes real hard. i have yet to find a true waterproof eyeliner.

look around at target. those products are usually the best for water proof. i recomend MAX FACTOR its red its amazing. make sure you get water proof (im a swimmer so im in water twice a day)

It would have to simulateously be oily/fatty/carbon-based (hydrophobic) and stick to your lashes (not wash off in blobs). I'm doing too much biochemistry today...

i've had that problem, as well. but there's this amazing new make up by the brand: Benefit. and it's by Louis Vuitton. crazy, i know. benefit is seriously my lifesaver. the best thing i can EVER recommend to anyone is something from their line called "she-laq" or something. it's clear, and you put it on your eyes, lips, mascara, anything. and basically, it holds everything in place. i went to an engagement party with smokey eyes, and was sobbing the entire time. but not one single smudge was on my face, after i put on the she-laq! it's a lifesaver!
